  • Delete as too soon to establish notability. Even though the film exists as evidenced by the recent trailer, it's too early to tell if it will get general coverage to establish notability. The only thing I found was this that refers to filming starting last January. I would be fine with recreating the article if more coverage emerges.

  • Temporary delete without prejudice toward undeletion or recreation in few months when this completed film receives requisite coverage... and it's rare that a Eddie Griffin / Penny Marshall film would not end up meting inclusion criteria. And note: Since we do not have an article on the Malayalam film of this same name, I gave it some tweaks and moved this one to its proper title per WP:NCF. There is the additional issue of WP:COI as the film's production company is "Flickbag" and the article author is User:Flickbag. He should be notified of the WP:APPARENTCOI and his inadvertent violation of WP:ORGNAME. Schmidt, Michael Q. 07:35, 25 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

From 21 June I noticed this list and that some 10+ of these PRODs were charting albums at either ARIA or Billboard. I have gone through more of the 50+ list and added sources where possible and dePRODed any that I felt had a reliable source for their existence. I was hoping to get time to supply further sources to attempt to establish notability. With so many articles to research this is not necessarily achievable in a short time-frame. The nominator has sent most of the dePRODed articles straight to AfD.

  • Comment There's certainly confusion between two cases here, but surely something can be done short of deletion, if one or both of the cases are notable, to focus on one case or present the two cases side by side. --Colapeninsula (talk) 16:43, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
* Comment How about instead of deletion, we create a disambiguation page, like this?

American Radio Relay League, Inc. v. FCC (disambiguation)

American Radio Relay League, Inc. v. FCC can refer to either:

  • American Radio Relay League, Inc. v. FCC (1980), regarding CB radio
  • American Radio Relay League, Inc. v. FCC (2008), regarding Broadband over Power Line (BPL)

K2TRF has stated (see Talk page) that most of the content on the page refers to 1980 with incorrect technical information. We can keep this page, with the changes suggested by K2TRF and I (we are both ham operators, and I am familiar with legal citations). Then we link this article into the 1980 on the disambiguation page, while allowing someone to write the 2008 case later on?

We can use the Talk page of the disambiguation page to store information for later transfer to 2008 when it is made.

-bleak_fire_ (talk) 22:18, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Should post what I did on the Talk page here, for continuity to the AfD. In the first paragraph, three reference links are applied to the end of the date (at the end of the sentence):
    1. http://law.justia.com/cases/federal/appellate-courts/F2/617/875/41173/
    2. http://www.leagle.com/decision/2008751524F3d227_1727
    3. http://scholar.google.com/scholar_case?case=12380905032588396714&hl=en&as_sdt=2&as_vis=1&oi=scholarr
The first link references the 1980 case, whereas the second and third links are entirely about the 2008 case. From this alone, we can assume the article was written with mixed sources, and therefore has multiple problems/inconsistencies in its text. I'm not sure if I'm just incredibly tired (at 11:46pm locally) or if this article is written incorrectly, but I don't see anything even remotely related to Broadband over Power Line systems (BPL), which is what the 2008 case was entirely about. The 1980 case, dealing with the massive influx of CB operations and the unregulated nature of both CB as a service and the mentioned operators, is the only case case I can see mentioned/referenced in this text. Perhaps it is just a very shallow article discussing the 1980 case, and needs to have the irrelevant references removed as well as have the content of the article expanded with the valid, relevant references? Then a new page could be made for the 2008 case, dealing with BPL rather than CB.


If the current article is denied AfD, it should only be because it is/becomes adopted/corrected by someone with the time to (essentially) rewrite the current page using only the 1980 case information (since that is what the article reads about, and has no discussion about the 2008 case present). Then another article could be created for the 2008 case, with those respective references. Sadly, I cannot guarantee I would be able to do this in a timely manner myself, due to other already existing obligations. If I have time later on at some point, I will return to see if the AfD passed or was denied (for adoption & re-creating), however if nobody has the free time to currently take this task on, I have to vote for the AfD, as it is incorrect and confusing in its current state. k2trf (talk) 22:47, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
K2TRF, I am willing to fix the current article once it's moved to 1980 in a disambiguation page. We don't need to create a 2008 article right away, it can just be listed on the disambiguation page and linked once the article is made. -bleak_fire_ (talk) 06:31, 25 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Seems to fail our notability guidelines. There is a certain amount presence on social media, much of it seemingly written by somebody with the same name as the article's creator, but there is a shortage of independent coverage.

Hello Sir,..

Gumpul is a independent site the content is not created by it's owner but by users across the globe you can notify the 20000 face book likes for brand "gumpul". it is notable Specially in India. yo can't deny it im not advertising about the site here i just wrote about a brand. deleting is not wise decision, Alexa's Rank is a proof to say that it has notability, as well Gumpul also got Voted by number of users on Top ten's " list of top 10 classified sites " and got 7 most desirable classified site in india the two sources are can't be manipulate by owners.

  • It may help your argument if you add sources to the article. The company's facebook page, etc. are not considered reliable sources. Are there news articles about the company? Do you know how to do inline sources? Bali88 (talk) 01:26, 26 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Redirect to Warped Tour was undone. My argument: there is no verified content in here, and the only thing this and other articles have is a list of bands that played there. Even if those appearances themselves were verified, that doesn't make them notable, and it certainly doesn't make this particular instance of the tour notable. Whatever is relevant and of encyclopedic value can be stated in the main article--the rest falls foul of WP:NOTDIR. Drmies (talk) 20:43, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: I posted a few days ago to Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Music#Concert_tours_etc. to propose these redirects, and have left a notification there pointing to this AfD. I'm not going to list them all in this AfD, but obviously what happens to the other lists (that's what they are, nothing more) depends on what happens in this AfD. Drmies (talk) 20:57, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep With out theses articles, most of the information will be lost for those who want to look back at the list for whatever reason. Wikipedia is for encyclopedia reasons, and this would fall under encyclopedia reasons. Encmetalhead (talk) 20:48, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The article is sourced, and serves as an encyclopedia which is what Wikipedia is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Encmetalhead (talkcontribs) 21:19, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Just because something is sourced does not mean it is automatically in need of an article on Wikipedia. Johnny338 (talk) 21:24, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
And it's not "sourced". There's a couple of announcements, and announcements of announcements. Some of them might actually in reliable sources, maybe, but that's not the point. I'll cite the relevant guideline from Wikipedia:WikiProject Concert Tours:

Concert tours are notable if they have received significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Such coverage might show notability in terms of artistic approach, financial success, relationship to audience, or other such terms. Sources which merely establish that a tour happened are not sufficient to demonstrate notability.

This burden has not been met for this or the other articles. Drmies (talk) 22:24, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Yet Warped tour HAS received significant coverage in independent reliable sources for all the examples you have listed... Encmetalhead (talk) 22:39, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
No it hasn't, and the 2012 version (and the others) certainly hasn't. Drmies (talk) 23:01, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I'll also like to add the official website only lists bands and dates for the current year, so the information isn't readily available for past years outside of the Wikipedia articles. Encmetalhead (talk) 21:27, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per nom. Not independently notable simply because lots of somewhat well-known bands performed at it. Maybe a list of bands that have performed at every Warped Tour, sectioned off by year, is the right place for the really long list in this article now. Jinkinson talk to me 21:42, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
That would be 20 years worth of bands, and I doubt any band has played every year. The article is independently notable as Warped Tour is a household name and has been around for 20 years. Encmetalhead (talk) 21:44, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I myself have never heard of it, not that that provides any weight here, but anyways: I agree that the list of bands who have performed at the Warped Tour is going to be long, but it's better than this article. Also, the amount of time the tour has been around is not enough to keep the article. Johnny338 (talk) 21:51, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Jinkinson, Encmetalhead, Johnny338: such a list already exists for every year at List of Warped Tour lineups by year. In light of this, I don't see the point in keeping the article as it essentially duplicates the list and does not impart any additional information. Richard3120 (talk) 11:45, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
That article is bloated, long, and shouldn't have been made in the first place. Encmetalhead (talk) 12:09, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Particularly as it has no references. But for Warped Tour 2012 to justify its existence, I do feel we are going to need to see some information (properly sourced) as to why it was "an important year" as some editors suggest – just a list of bands isn't going to cut it. Richard3120 (talk) 12:13, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Tour is notable since several notable bands performed. Article already has several third-party sources. This tour is not like most tours which feature only a handful of bands for the entire run. Adding every single band for 20 years to one article would lead to an article that is much too large.

And if we combined all the years into one article there will be a discuss on why the list wasn't broken into separate articles for each year. Encmetalhead (talk) 22:39, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Why would every single band be listed in the first place? And "Warped Tour" may be notable, but that doesn't mean that Warped Tour xxxx is. It has to pass the WP:GNG, and I don't see that happening for any of these. Drmies (talk) 22:19, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Specific years for Warped Tour are notable. It's rare that anybody talks about Warped Tour as a whole, people discuss specific years. The tour as it was in say 1999 can not be compared to the tour as it is now or as it was in 2012. As such I belive that having articles for individual years of Warped Tour is important. Several sources can be found for lineups and I think that the it certainly does pass WP:GNG. There is significant coverage of Warped Your every year, most of this is by independant, reliable sources. I don't really see any way that this does not pass the WP:GNG. Punkrok97 (talk) 22:59, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Punkrok97: Read what Drmies said above in relation to WikiProject Concert Tours. This article actually doesn't seem to pass WP:GNG. Also, would you care to link these sources you are discussing? Johnny338 (talk) 23:04, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Wait. You think that the blog of a Brooklyn vegan is a reliable source, and that the following note is in-depth discussion--"Ryan Rockwell of pop punk band Mixtapes allegedly said something along the lines of 'Fuck Tigers Jaw, kiss whoever you want"'? For realsies? Note the "allegedly said something along the lines of". This constitutes significant discussion of the 2012 tour as a whole and this is why it should stay? (I'm pretending it's about the 2012 tour, which is what this discussion is about.) I think you need to memorize WP:FART. Or start editing K-pop articles. Drmies (talk) 00:09, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I Wouldn't take the Brooklyn Vegan blog as a source but Alternative Press is certainly noteworthy (http://www.altpress.com/news/entry/vans_warped_tour_2012_announce_stage_lineups). In addition that year itself is noteworthy as a fan actually died at one of the dates. Valid sources for this information can be found here: http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/young-woman-collapses-and-dies-at-vans-warped-tour-20120716 and here: http://www.thestar.com/news/crime/2012/07/15/woman_dead_after_collapsing_at_molson_amphitheatre.html. 2012 was also the first year the the Warped Roadies television show was shot, again making it a notable year. I'm not sure if IMBD counts as a source but if it does the page can be found here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2195454/. If not, other valid sources of this information can be found. I hope that this would be enough to show that the 2012 year is in fact distinct from the tour as a whole and that it deserves its own page. Punkrok97 (talk) 02:40, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Altpress reports the lineup. That's to be expected; no doubt you can find plenty more sources that report the lineup. That's never going to make this pass the GNG requirement. No, IMDB doesn't count as a reliable source, though that TV show itself might be notable--but that doesn't make the tour notable ("notability is not inherited"). That leaves an unfortunate accident, but why is that more than an accident? We're not the news. Someone said that the "shockwaves" were still felt, but there seems to be no evidence of those shockwaves. Drmies (talk) 04:27, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Even if that blog/ezine were a reliable source, it's in-depth coverage consists of this: "It looks as if Warped Tour is laying the law down on no moshing or crowdsurfing due to possible lawsuits that could end the festival. What are your thoughts?" 15:33, 24 June 2014 (UTC)
  • Delete per noms spot on analysis - It's nothing but a huge directory of non notable bands, What can be merged should be merged to Warped Tour, I'm not saying Merge on a whole as it looks like nothing much (If anything!) can merged. –Davey2010(talk) 00:48, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete then redirect to parent. There are some unreliable sources that show it existed but nothing to demonstrate notability of this particular tour. The only prose is the lede, the rest is an eye numbing directory. Dennis Brown |  | WER 01:17, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Dennis Brown Please see my latest comment. While it isn't in this article currently (although i would be more than happy to add it) there are several things that do make 2012 a particularly notable year for the Vans Warped Tour. These things are sourceable (sources given above) and I think make the page worth keeping. Punkrok97 (talk) 02:47, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure how much my opinion counts here, but as a friend of an artist who just played this year's Warped dates on the West Coast, I know that 2012 and 2014 are pretty notable amongst the other years' tours. Specific to 2012, that was an important year because Warped briefly left the States and went to England - something that single-headliner tours do, but is almost never done by festival-style tours like this one. Also, there is some coverage of skate events at this Warped that features important names within that world. Perhaps if these points and the death of the teenager in Toronto were expanded upon in the original article, that might lend credence to the validity of the article? http://www.virtualfestivals.com/latest/news/13505 http://sidewalk.mpora.com/skateboarding-videos/vans-warped-tour-2012-uk-vert-championships-highlights.html Riceflour (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 22:57, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I accept that 2012 was the first time the tour had come to the UK in a decade so that would be some kind of significant event in the tour's history (and after one more UK tour in 2013 it has been cancelled again this year), but my problem is that I struggle to see how even including all this information would be enough to create a decent article once the band line-ups have been taken out. I think it would be only be a paragraph or so long, in which case it would be better off as a section in the main Warped Tour article. Richard3120 (talk) 23:20, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. For years I have relied on WP to receive a faster and updated knowledge of every concert/tour line-ups that I have attended. The actual Warped Tour website have had flaws in the past for the list of bands and dates but thanks to the users who updated the articles on the WP, it was cleared for misconception. I personally know a good amount of friends of mine who would rather rely on WP for festival line-ups rather than the actual website. Yes, set times are announce on the day of the show but set times have nothing to do with this at all. Many of the bands that were announced for the tour are sourced as well as stage placements and stage names that were announced on reliable third party websites before the actual announcement from the tour.

It's funny you say that, all the sources for those bands lists are dead links in the main article. And if the primary source can't get the bands list right, who can you trust? The parent article is a mess of broken links and unreliable sources. It needs an overhaul itself. Dennis Brown |  | WER 20:54, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
If the articles are allowed to stay, we can spearhead the overhaul of the main article and all the separate years. Could we do it now? Yes, but with the threat of the page being blanked again its more wise to wait until the decision before putting in that work. In fact, I'll nominate myself as leader of a revitalization project for this subsection of articles pending that they stay active. Encmetalhead (talk) 22:11, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Each article is its own island. It must demonstrate its own notability, it can't WP:INHERIT it from the parent article. Personally, I would just worry about the parent article (which is a bloody mess) before I even thought of any year articles, which look likely to get deleted. As for nominating "leaders", this isn't a concept I'm familiar with at Wikipedia. Dennis Brown |  | WER 00:11, 25 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, that's not entirely true. There are spin-off articles allowed to keep very large articles to become unreadably massive. Judging by the length even of this spin-off article, that would seem to be the situation here. Carrite (talk) 02:33, 3 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
As mentioned above, such an article as you mention effectively already exists – see List of Warped Tour lineups by year. Which is also completely unreferenced. Richard3120 (talk) 09:02, 27 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
And as mentioned above, that is a bloated article and would only become more bloated as time goes on. If each year has it's own article, then no single article would be bloated. Encmetalhead (talk) 12:47, 28 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This artist is wholly non-notable outside of their work in "Johnny & Associates" which later became "Kanjani Eight". There is little in this that cannot be covered under the Kanjani Eight article, and certainly not sufficient article nor notability for a single article on this person alone.

  • Delete - I first became aware of this article when it had an expired proposed deletion tag on it. I checked out its references, and searched for further references to verify notability. It seemed like the subject should be notable, as a member of a (seemingly) notable band and someone who'd acted on TV and modeled there must be some significant coverage, but I couldn't find any, so I deleted it. Recently, a request was made on my talk page to restore it, and I did so without prejudice since our proposed deletion policy allows for article restoration if anyone wants it restored. But I warned the editor that it would likely be deleted without better references. -- Atama 20:19, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Entirely unsourced article about a band whose only substantive claim of notability per WP:NMUSIC is criterion #10, the very one that contains the proviso that it supports a redirect to the notable work, not a standalone article, if it's the only substantive claim of notability in the article. In addition, a standalone bio about the lead singer was recently created by User:Envechris — note band's name, note lead singer's name, note conflict of interest rules — with exclusively primary and unreliable commercial sources, and not even the first hint of any more reliable source coverage than the exactly none that is present here. I'm certainly willing to withdraw this nomination if good sources can be added, but it can't stand on Wikipedia in this form. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 19:53, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I'm not coming up with any significant coverage in reliable sources for this act to meet WP:GNG.

WP:BLP, relying entirely on primary and user-generated sources, of a person whose principal claim of notability is an unsuccessful candidacy in a political party's nomination contest (a notability claim that fails WP:POLITICIAN). While there are things about his business career that might get him past our inclusion rules for businesspeople if they were reliably sourced, as it stands right now they aren't, and thus don't count toward properly demonstrating his notability at all. The article also contains a positively stunning amount of entirely unsourced personal detail for which conflict of interest editing by somebody who knows the topic personally is very nearly the only possible explanation. I'm willing to withdraw this nomination if good sources can be added to properly attest that he actually meets one or more of our inclusion rules, but this version is so far from passing muster that it could technically have been speedied G11. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 19:27, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The article as it is presently constituted fails to meet the general notability guidelines of the Wikipedia, in that it does not demonstrate that David Fennell has received substantial coverage in independent, reliable sources. Also, it fails the guideline at WP:POLITICIAN, as he was an unelected political candidate. In my search for coverage, I found coverage of the election primary, but I did not find any in depth coverage of this David Fennell in independent, reliable sources. I found lots about other "David Fennells". The author is new to Wikipedia and has not grasped the concepts yet, so be kind and try not to use too much jargon. --Bejnar (talk) 21:11, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thank you for the opportunity to allow me to make this article better. I have tried to follow the rules as closely as possible, I am not an experienced Wikipedia editor, but I am learning as quickly as possible. I have edited a significant part of this article to help with flow and readability. I understand that I included too much data that was not needed in this context. In terms of general guidelines for notable people, this individual while a loosing candidate, has was able to gather a huge number of votes that can be verified by multiple sources cited. The numbers involved far out shadow other current and would be politicians included in this archive. I will continue to improve the sources as soon as possible. I have also improved the sources related to David Fennell as pertain to his business career which is also significant and should easily pass muster when fully cited according to the guidelines as I have read them. Thank you for your help, respectfully Jschimpf (talk) 17:24, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The number of votes a person got in any given election is irrelevant to their notability or lack thereof. Either they won or they didn't, and the number of votes they happened to get in the process has no bearing on anything. A person who gets 10 million votes but loses is still just a person who lost — and a person who was acclaimed to a notable office, and thus technically garnered no votes at all in the process, is still a person who held a notable office. Bearcat (talk) 21:28, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The three new sources cited in the article do not add any notability. The problem with the business citation to Media Bay for notability purposes is that Media Bay is not independent from David Fennell. It is his company. See the essay Wikipedia:Independent sources for a discussion of that term. The Wikipedia guideline at Wikipedia:Notability says in summary Wikipedia articles cover notable topics—those that have gained sufficiently significant attention by the world at large and over a period of time, and are not outside the scope of Wikipedia. We consider evidence from reliable independent sources to gauge this attention. This means that outside sources are needed to demonstrate the "attention of the world at large". Similarly, the citation to his Master's thesis is nicely verified by his university, but adds no notability unless it is cited by a substantial number of others. I don't think that David Fennell could quality as an WP:ACADEMIC. Lastly, it doesn't matter how many votes he received, he cannot qualify as a WP:POLITICIAN unless he has won public office. You need to look for independent, reliable sources that provide substantial coverage of the events of his life. See Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources. Most venture capitalists do not receive the kind of attention that provides the notability that Wikipedia requires in a topic for an article. But one does not have to be a Donald Trump; for example, take a look at the article about Marc Andreessen and the sources that are cited about him. --Bejnar (talk) 21:42, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the feedback. I seems as thought the guidelines are justifiably vague when considering the notability of a candidate, winning or losing. In terms of significance on the political front, I will work to gather more sources related to notability. I was under some impression from the guidelines that it would be somewhat of a given that a politician that earned a very large number of votes would obviously have substantial notability among their constituents as well as in the media. I will cite additional sources that I hope will help clear that issue up as soon as possible. He certainly qualifies under "Major local political figures who have received significant press coverage", and I will help support that with additional citations. In terms of the business and the academic side, those references were put there to establish general credibility and further inform about a person who continues to be politically active in California. Respectfully Jschimpf (talk) 02:00, 25 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I hope you are now aware that with regards to Wikipedia notability that "earned a very large number of votes would obviously have substantial notability" is not true.

You pull off all the ordinary political campaign coverage and you're left with a failure of GNG. It is a pity, however, to lose such deathless unsourced prose as: "The kitchen table also served for years as a lab bench where Fennell taught his son to solder Heathkits and build the family oscilloscope, television, and radios. The table was famously covered with burns from the use of the soldering iron. It was in these early years that Fennell learned technology products were man made, not magic, and could be learned and built. Steve Jobs built the same Heathkits in the 1970s and cited them as the basis of his knowledge of modern technology." Ad infinitum, ad nauseam... Carrite (talk) 04:08, 27 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I'm sorry, but I just don't find the coverage necessary to meet our requirements WP:GNG or WP:POLITICIAN. Our test for notability is that he received significant coverage from multiple independent reliable sources. That does not appear to be true of his entrepreneurial activities or of his run for office. Incidentally, the following statement in the article is not true: Fennell sought the Republican Party nomination for Lieutenant Governor of California in the 2014 primary election. He lost to Ron Nehring. Actually California does not have such a thing as a "Republican Party nomination" any more. The truth is that he ran in the state's open primary, finishing a distant third and thus not qualifying for the November ballot. --MelanieN (talk) 00:44, 1 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Inadequately sourced biography of a writer. The Forbes source is mere mention, and the other two sources seem closely connected. I am unable to find sources that discuss the subject in depth. Fails WP:BASIC and WP:ANYBIO. - MrX 19:16, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I don't see a credible claim of significance either. It seems to be a vanity article. Why would you not nominate this for speedy deletion in accordance with WP:CSD#A7? ~Amatulić (talk) 23:56, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    I've had CSDs rejected for less notable claims than " known for his book "Sellarketing" " or " He has been honored for his contributions to modern selling by Forbes", so I decided to err on the side of caution. What passes as a "significant claim" varies widely, depending on which admin is reviewing the CSD.- MrX 00:55, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    Fair enough. Had I seen it proposed for deletion as A7, and I was unable to find sources to establish notability, I would have deleted it. Empty phrases like "known for" and "has been honored" without specifics or sources aren't credible claims of significance. Accordingly, I have changed my initial comment here to 'delete'. ~Amatulić (talk) 15:38, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

With that said, I searched about the topic, and most of what I could find are Blogspot pages. However, I did find a few websites that appeared to be reliable, though since I have no knowledge of Indonesian, I can't say if they are significant or not.

  • Comment: This is nothing like the "mis-placed stub dictionary entry, that discusses the etymology, translations" etc. described at Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a dictionary. It is a discussion of the aesthetics, history, and popularity of a particular fashion. That is not to say that the article establishes the notability of the concept or verifies its own content; this is not a "keep" !vote. However, the reference to NOTDICT is entirely spurious. Of course the article contains a definition; all good articles do. The problem that NOTDICT addresses is articles that contain nothing but a definition and related information about the word, and are unlikely to be expanded beyond that content.

7 year old basically unsourced WP:BLP for an actress who seems to lack the necessary notability to have her own article. According to Google, she mainly plays smallish roles in single episodes of TV series, nothing major or lasting. Her plays seem also to have received only minimal attention [1].

  • Delete A lack of substantial coverage of her or her work. Her roles on TV have generally been small or medium-sized, rather than leading or well-known. She seems quite popular in Jane Austen circles, and crops up a lot in their newsletters and websites, but not in reliable sources. Lack of reviews of her stage work (although shows at e.g. Edinburgh Festival Fringe can attract a lot of reviews).

Note: Since the time I registered my vote, a number of citations have been added to the page, including one showing the actor was indeed nominated for the Czech Lion. Additionally, the page has been substantially cleaned up.

  • Keep Won Czech Lion for supporting actor, the Czech equivalent of an Oscar or BAFTA; and meeting WP:NACTOR with multiple major roles in notable works, e.g. 3 Seasons in Hell, Dark Blue World, Raw (TV series).

TC has been featured in two records: the B-Side of a #38 hit, which isn't enough to suffice WP:MUSICBIO#C2 in my opinion, and a #183 hit, which really isn't enough. (The Official Charts Company publishes up to #100.) Launchballer 12:22, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Strongly contest - "Make U Bounce" looks set to be a top 20 if not top 10 hit, and two charting singles should be a solid foundation for his page to stay up in the meantime. Sure, the discography could use some formatting but there's nothing here which warrants a deletion in my opinion. --DJUnBalanced 14:23, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
You need to think what harm is there in keeping it up? Nothing. It may be weak on citations but that can be easily improved (by anyone, including you). --DJUnBalanced 14:26, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not convinced being a featured artist on the B-Side of a hit single is enough. Thus, I'm proposing a WP:TOOSOON deletion.--Launchballer 15:13, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Ironic how you think an established artist's article which has been up since 2006 is "too soon" and yet you were very eager to create a stub for "Make U Bounce" that's not even out yet.--DJUnBalanced 07:41, 26 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I found a reference offline and probably wouldn't've remembered it after a few days. Even if it got speedily redirected, the reference was still in the history and could be used later.

The subject does not meet WP:MUSICBIO. They lack the significant coverage in reliable sources required to have an article. Most of the refs are complete crap, all random low level blogs. Only reliable ones are an AllMusic entry (no biography or chart performance) and Billboard, which are only passing mentions, with no in depth coverage.

  • Comment :* @Technical 13: @STATicVapor:The artist has more than one single, which they didn't make it to BillBoard 100, you should have checked more pages instead of that one, these pages and magazines/books belong to BillBoard (of 1990s), in which of these 20+ pages Dazzie Dee is involved in and not just mentions.[1] I can say that in fact he is notable for his works with notable artists such as Ice Cube and more. There are multiple sources, third party and interviews that claim Dazzie's notability, such as AllMusic, BillBoard, DubCNN (West Coast Network news & local magazine), LA Times (article) and more. I think you could contribute and help me too, instead of being so 'harm'.. Have you checked Magioladiti's response to page talk?.. And I made some updates to that page.

There is news coverage in the New Zealand Herald about the stadium, about its ticket prices, coverage here too.

Sorry, but I'm confused by your statement. WP:NOTTEMPORARY says: "once a topic has been the subject of "significant coverage" in accordance with the general notability guideline, it does not need to have ongoing coverage." Whether the project was undertaken in 1906 or 2006 is immaterial under this guideline.  Philg88 talk 17:23, 16 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
That's precisely the issue here. The project never had the "significant coverage" required by the notability guideline and brief spike of interest in 2006 is insufficient. For this reason, WP:NOTTEMPORARY states "brief bursts of news coverage may not be sufficient signs of notability". Lamberhurst (talk) 10:21, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Subject doesn't meet notability standards at WP:GNG due to lack of significant reliable source coverage. Agyle (talk) 11:20, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. Sources I did find, which I don't consider significant coverage:
  • "Weather Star Jr. available in mid-1994". Communications Engineering Digest, Volume 20, Issue 1-7. International Thomson Communications. 1994. p. 59. The Weather Channel announced that delivery of its new, low-cost Weather Star Jr. model will begin in the middle of the year. The new model, manufactured by Wegener Communications and priced at $500, was developed for small systems that want to launch The Weather Channel but can't afford the more expensive Weather Star models. The unit is being field tested in eight cable systems around the U.S. before being released later this year, company officials said. [That's the entire article]
--Agyle (talk) 11:36, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I forgot to mention the reference currently in the article, an archived page from The Weather Channel (seller of the Weather Star Jr) concerning an FCC requirement for audio beeps when a severe weather warning is initially announced. The archive.org link also contains a link to an archive of the Weather Star Jr.'s manufacturer's Installation and User's Guide. Neither of these are independent sources, so they don't count toward notability.
All of the very limited information in this article that is verifiable through reliable sources is already included in Weather Star, so no merge is needed, although a redirect to Weather Star#Former systems would seem useful. Agyle (talk) 19:16, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I found another article (possibly a press release), in the same Communications Engineering Digest as mentioned above; quoting entire article:
  • Communications Engineering Digest. International Thomson Communications, Volume 19, Issues 7-13. 1993. p. 73. Low-cost 'Weather Star' ATLANTA-The Weather Channel has announced a new, low cost version of its addressable 'Weather Star' receiving system. Officials with The Weather Channel say that the network has signed an agreement with Wegener Communications to manufacture the receiver, with shipments expected to begin next year. 'For some time, we have been looking for ways to make the Weather Star available to small systems,' says Becky Ruthven, VP of affiliate sales and marketing for The Weather Channel. 'After extensive R&D, we've developed a solution in terms of product features and cost. Many small systems that want to launch The Weather Channel have not been able to afford the Weather Star; that's about to change.' The Weather Star is part of the propriety patented satellite communications system developed by the Weather Channel for telecasting local, system-specific weather forecasts to cable viewers every five minutes. The new, low-cost model called the Weather Star Jr. will render forecasts in videotext (instead of the color graphics, animation, local weather radar and other visual effects available with the larger Weather Star 4000). As a result, the scaled-down model will be 'significantly less expensive' than the Weather Star 4000, company officials say. Circle Reader Service No. 43

References provided are trivial mentions and fail to provide significant coverage of the subject, in spite of the assertion of notability required to avoid speedy deletion.

That was my rationale for my original PROD. The editor who removed the PROD tag stated on the talk page that the firm is well known in the IP law community, but also admits to "having trouble finding additional sources to support notability... [due to being] mentioned so much in directory listings, bylines in article written by (but not about) its attorneys, and on patents, that I believe it's masking the sources that are about the firm. I also have to admit that, even though it's notable within the IP law community, it may not be notable in the general sense that Wikipedia requires.... I think that this is an article deletion that's not well-handled with PROD, and that it should get an airing on WP:AFD."

  • Keep. Like every character in Ulysses there's plenty of material available for those who wish to find it. A simple GBooks search for <"The citizen" Ulysses> [4] turns up bunches of books discussing this character, who is the main candidate to be the "Cyclops" of the story. The assortment of relevant material is almost daunting, including one entire book on the image of "the citizen" in Joyce.[5] It's certainly enough to show the notability of the character. As an editorial matter, we might consider merging this and other articles currently contain very brief character sketches into List of Ulysses characters, but this should be without prejudice to a separate article when more content has been written. (We might consider a rename to The Citizen (Ulysses), which would be a rather more meaningful search term.) --Arxiloxos (talk) 03:34, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, I'd be wary of the reasoning that this is only a minor character; Ulysses has been pulled apart and examined in such detail by various scholars that even the most minor aspects of the work are more than likely the subject of coverage in multiple reliable sources. In this case, I believe that the sources identified by User:Arxiloxos are probably good enough to justify a stand-alone article. Lankiveil (speak to me) 01:41, 14 June 2014 (UTC).[reply]

Article lacks any third-party reliable sources. The sources are all either primary sources, WordPress blogs, open wikis, or distros that are only showing that it's in their repositories with no significant context whatsoever to show notability, and these aren't independent sources either.

As I've already said at least twice at Talk:Qpdfview, if this is the standard to be applied, then it isn't being applied uniformly. evince, okular, and xpdf are all highly notable pieces of open-source PDF software, used by millions of people in the the real world, worldwide, for free. In the virtual world of wiki, they are apparently not notable. Though they are older than qpdfview, they also arguably fail WP:NSOFT, as I'm sure do many other open-source software projects. If qpdfview is deleted, so should the rest. If you do delete those articles, then wikipedia has lost sight of its roots and gone rather insane. If you don't, ya'll a bunch of hypocrites. I have yet to receive any response to the above argument, and I'm getting a little tired of pointing this out.

The solution? Leave qpdfview as is. Inclusion in a wide variety of different software OS repositories is a sign of independent notability in the real world. Inclusion standards for many repos are very strict. Some here don't seem to understand that. Are they perhaps unfamiliar with how open-source software works? Most certainly, WP:NSOFT is flawed when it comes to open-source software. Perhaps WP:NSOFT should be nominated for deletion? It's arguably far less notable than most open-source software projects. MartinSpacek (talk) 05:07, 16 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

All of this is misdirected.
  1. This discussion is about qpdfview, not Evince, Okular or xpdf. Please, stay focused.
  2. If you have problems with WP:NSOFT, you should go to its talk page and discuss the matter there. Still, without coverage in secondary reliable sources the subject has huge problem with WP:V and is not deemed worth inclusion anyway.
  3. You ignore the difference between usefulness and notability. Even most useful software may not be worth encyclopedic coverage.
  4. Regargding repos: Windows is much more widely used OS then conventional Linux distros, and inclusion into Windows distribution is much more difficult. Does that mean that every piece of software included with Windows is inherently notable?
Using such arguments in deletion discussion is not helpful. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talktrack) 14:37, 16 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Besides having no sources and external links which are all dead or seemingly unrelated to the topic, this appears to be a case of original research – while the term “biological imperative” appears to be a real one used in a wide variety of contexts, there doesn’t seem to be a verifiable list of any specific things defined as biological imperatives per se. While the phrase should (and does) have an entry on the wiktionary, that seems entirely sufficient given the topics ambiguity when it comes to specifics. Buddy23Lee (talk) 22:42, 6 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Undecided - I'll wait until there is more discussion before I vote. It drives me nuts when articles are created and then no attempt to source the thing is made. However, I think this could be a very good article if it is written right. Hopefully someone will see the AFD and do a little work on it. Bali88 (talk) 22:53, 6 June 2014 (UTC) I think the right move is to delete it. Unsourced. No one seems interested in working on it. I think it could be a good article if someone gave it some attention, but I think it could just be recreated in that case. Bali88 (talk) 06:04, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I'm not sure if its worth noting, but this article has existed in one form or another since 2005, when it appeared to focus on "genetic imperative". I've tried a few times over the last couple years to find some worthy citations before finally giving up and conceding to myself this is probably best option. I do hope you're right though.

  • Comment - Tricky one. From what I can tell there's not an agreed upon definition of "biological imperative" that clearly distinguishes it from basic need. I think the best case for keeping will frame it as a term used by particular notable researchers, in a certain theoretical context, or something more discipline-specific. As a general concept it seems like a less used term for ideas we already have articles for. --— Rhododendrites talk |  18:55, 7 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. There is not much to be said for this article. There is not much to be said of it, that Buddy Lee has not said already. But there is the subject of the scientific consensus on this topic, or rather lack of it. It is sad to me that genetics has allowed this discussion to go unaddressed, so that a thousand scientists can opine in scholarly articles that a particular thing is a biological imperative, while ten of those scientists selected randomly could not agree on a list of ten biological imperatives, much less this list. There is a specific WP guideline that covers the premature creation of science articles, but I cannot find it, unfortunately. Basically, the coverage of this term in Scholar amounts to trivial coverage: it is used in passing, in discussions about other topics. For example, two of the articles where it is used as a title, both put question marks at the end of the title: "Physical illness: Social construction or biological imperative?" and "Aggression: A Biological Imperative?". Scientists cannot even seriously, before the scrutiny of their peers, put forth the combination of the term and a hypothetical example. Even worse, the whole subject reminds me of the History Channel-level stabs at explaining evolution, where evolution is described as ab "arms race" and species are said to "prefer" a particular genetic variation. This is putting the emphasis on success, as though it were chosen by the species, and those species who do not choose it, well, they are just sorry losers. The extinction of species can be influenced by cataclysmic factors, and the success, by dumb luck (birds on islands that have no snake predators, for example, with their extravagant plumage and mating dances that serve only an aesthetic purpose).

While naturally our instinct may be to say "keep" because the topic sounds notable, the article is in bad shape. Little has changed since it was 1st nominated for deletion over four years ago. Most of the keep votes were on the grounds that the article needed improvement rather than a delete, but that has not occurred. Three books [7], [8], [9] were cited in that debate, yet the first one is merely a book about the Woodstock Music Festival. The second one merely mentions the term several times in passing over the course of two pages. The third source is the best one out of the three, yet a quick glance through it seems to reveal a similar problem with the other source: It only mentions the term in passing on several pages. I suppose it could be used to cite Led Zeppelin as an example of a group who did acoustic songs, but that would seem to be the extent of the usefulness of that source.

The delete votes in the discussion were over concerns that the article is a dictionary term as well as original research. Seems like a good time to take it back to afd, since its been four years and the article remains largely unchanged from that discussion. Johnny338 (talk) 04:22, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Unable to find reliable, secondary sources which shows this voice actress meets WP:GNG, not a single source within the article would generally be considered a reliable source, and while I can verify some of the roles through more reliable sources (google books search provides a handful of name checks/cast listings), I was unable to find signficant coverage.

      • Okay, I"ll ask another question. ANN/E, which I admit we dont' consider reliable, mentions her in two Digimon properties. [12] and [13]. The cast lists for those are broken into groups, each group is alphabetical, but the first group appears to be more signficant actors than the latter in each property. In the first link, Julie does not appear in the first group of 17 actors. In the second link, Julie does not appear in the first group of 11 actors. Do you believe that ANN/E fairly represents the significance of Julie's contributions to Digimon? Wikipedia has a number of articles on Digimon, none of which mention her. Do you believe that Wikipedia's coverage of Diimon treats julie with due weight? Can you explain why? --j⚛e deckertalk 06:55, 25 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
      • We appear to have good coverage of Digimon on Wikipedia. Is that accurate?

    • It is interesting, if those are signficant roles, that she is not mentioned once at Digimon or any of the articles in the Digimon properties, nor is she mentioned once at Chobits, but you do have a (unreliable, but probably accurate) source that shows the role in Magic Knight Rayearth to be (in my view) signficant.

  • Keep Passes WP:ENTERTAINER #1. For the show Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex she did the voices of the Tachikoma, they having ample dialog in the series, detailed conversations about the meaning of existence in the second season even. I checked the article for Tenchi_the_Movie_2:_The_Daughter_of_Darkness and find the character she voices, Mayuka, is the major character in that film. So she has had significant roles in notable works. Dream Focus 10:53, 25 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment: List of Ghost in the Shell characters, Tenchi_the_Movie_2:_The_Daughter_of_Darkness, appear to be our coverage of those two roles. It seems a little odd to those of us unfamiliar with the latter work that "the major character in that film" should be listed ninth, although that is closer to showing some level of significance than what I had seen before. --j⚛e deckertalk 15:44, 25 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    They list the regular characters first, even if this person has more lines than some of them. Some shows have more main characters than others featured in every episode, so the list would be longer. Dream Focus 17:40, 25 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. The notability or lack thereof is not immediately clear but there are reasonable arguments on both sides. Certainly, being a losing candidate in a primary election is insufficient to pass WP:POLITICIAN, but there is some merit to the claim that his business career has generated enough courage to make Mr Avellone notable otherwise. When both sides present reasonable arguments, and the community is divided as it is here, the result must be that no consensus can be declared. Sjakkalle (Check!) 14:02, 4 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The previous deletion discussion was closed an no consensus, in part because there was a desire not to rush to deletion as Avellone was part of a breaking news event (the 2014 Massachusetts gubernatorial election). As Avellone failed to make the primary ballot, this is no longer an issue. The references provided do not show that the subject of the article is notable beyond this one event, as he has not received significant coverage outside of this context (the only references in the article are a paragraph in Time Magazine and a quote in an article about HMOs).

  • Delete - If he actually made the ballot it would be appropriate to keep the article, but he didn't. It's either going to be Steve Grossman or Martha Coakley who wins the democratic nomination in September, they are well known. If Joseph Avellone made the ballot and was well known like Grossman and Coakley it would be more appropriate to keep but he was unable to. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Plyjacks (talkcontribs) 01:18, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - Surprised by the nomination. Easy pass for WP:GNG or WP:NPEOPLE as far as I see. A lot of the coverage about him comes from the last 18 months while running for governor, sure, but he's got an impressive resume that removes ONEEVENT as a factor. Being notable for only WP:ONEEVENT isn't the same as receiving some coverage for a number of different things before getting a whole lot of coverage for one thing in particular (invoking ONEEVENT doesn't negate press from that one big event, it just requires some evidence that the person has received coverage for other stuff, too, even if not as substantial). Make all the arguments you want about individual items in the following list not making him notable, the fact of the matter is there appear to be one or more sources about him for each of these -- at least as far as I can tell. These, in combination with the recent election, makes him an easy keep: (1) Selectman (and Chairman of the Board of Selectmen) in Wellesley, Massachusetts; (2) Executive VP at PAREXEL; (3) health care advisor to Paul Tsongas during 1992 Presidential run; (3) health care advisor to John Kerry during 2004 Presidential run; (4) Profiled in Time Magazine in 1979 as one of "50 Faces for the Future"; (5) COO for Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts; (6) CEO of Veritas Medicine; (7) Board of Directors at Boston Heart Diagnostics. --— Rhododendrites talk |  03:32, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Keep. The sources provided above by Avellone show that the subject is not just known for the election. I am not convinced that that pre-campaign sources provide "significant coverage about other things," but combined with his candidacy, he passes WP:GNG.

  • Keep The book was reviewed in the New York Times by Garry Trudeau. Though I can't find the full review itself online, I did find a letter to the editor published by the NYT about the review, verifying that it was published. Snippets from the review are widely available online. The author's website also mentions reviews in the Chicago Sun-Times, the Los Angeles Times, and Publisher's Weekly. As the book was published 21 years ago, it is difficult to find sources, but I believe that the book is notable. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 05:03, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Belief doesn't carry much; we need references from reliable third-party sources. -- Mikeblas (talk) 12:57, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. This book is incredibly influential and the sources are out there. I'm finding where it's been used as a source for various things but also where it's discussed in several peer-reviewed journals, textbooks, and books like this one and especially this book, which refers to it as groundbreaking. I'm adding them to the article as I speak. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 14:45, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • This source talks about how high profile it was when it released, and these books talk about educators using it in a classroom setting. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 14:50, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • I really can't emphasize enough how incredibly influential this is. (More sources: [18], [19], [20], [21], [22]) Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 14:53, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Good sources. I looked into this and discovered two serious, in-depth academic studies which discuss the book at length: The Language of Comics: Word and Image (University Press of Mississippi, 2007) and Comics and Culture: Analytical and Theoretical Approaches to Comics (Museum Tusculanum, 2000). There are apparently multiple chapters in both books that either build on or critique this book. I recommend keeping this article so that this can be expanded on.

  • Keep per above - wondering if we can find sources for the similar work, Comics and Sequential Art? BOZ (talk) 19:43, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep: this book is widely covered and cited by other sources. It floors me that someone would even try to get this deleted. Curly Turkey ⚞¡gobble!⚟ 20:00, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Subject only had 1 to 3 episode-long guest appearances, very small film roles, and no significant coverage in any entertainment news/magazines articles or websites. While she did win a Young Artist Award for a guest role, that alone is not enough to merit notability (not everyone who wins that award has an article here) and there is no indication she has plans to return to acting anytime soon.

  • Delete Not notable. Lack of in-depth media coverage found in Google search (or in article). Roles were generally supporting/guest (note that the "co-starring" role in Always Greener wasn't the Australian show but an obscure 2001 thing that IMDb has almost no info about), and nothing that could be called innovative, cult, or iconic. Has not acted for several years, so she's unlikely to become more famous or get more coverage in the near future. --Colapeninsula (talk) 16:33, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
